is to find out whether the science self-efficacy scale in PISA 2006 and PISA
2015 applications ensure measurement invariance. Sample of the study

Analysis (MGCFI) was performed to determine invariance of the science
self-efficacy scale across year and gender.  Invariance stages were
examined by means of the comparison of fit indexes. The results of the study
indicated that the science self-efficacy scale satisfied all stages of
invariance by gender both in 2006 and 2015. Structural and metric invariance
was provided for both gender across years and total group across years. </span> </div>}, number={2}, publisher={İzzet KARA}
